Job Shadows

Job shadowing lets you try out a career for a
day to see if you're really interested. You might like the idea of a job, but
not like the day-to-day rhythms and challenges of it. Liking a
"typical day" on the job will mean greater success for you down the
road. When you're on the job shadow,ask
questions about
what the person likes and dislikes about that job, what a good career path
looks like, and what more you need to do to get your foot in the door.
